Pheidippides Watches Hourglass Watch: A Watch Unlike Any Other

For centuries, watches remained pretty much the same with two or three hands sweeping a track of markers to tell the time. Even new takes on time-keeping typically look pretty much like your average watch with just a few small tweaks to make their design unique.

When you first see the Pheidippides Watches Hourglass Watch, it’s difficult to know you’re even looking at a watch. You can’t help but stare and marvel at just what you’re looking at.

That’s because the Pheidippides Watches Hourglass Watch has absolutely no markings on its dial. All you see is a single hand standing out against the color of the very unique glass box case that was custom designed for the timepiece. When you tilt your head, you’ll see the hour markers are printed along the side of the dial, putting a whole new spin on timekeeping. The watch features Swiss parts and was meticulously crafted in Germany.

So what makes the Hourglass Watch from Pheidippides Watches extra special? Here are some of the features we think is great:

the use of a patented hardening process making the watch case super scratch resistant

the variety of straps that give the watch a look anywhere between distinctly dressy to very playful

the availability of both brushed and polished finishing

the use of an STP5-15 Swiss made automatic movement visible through a large sapphire glass in the screw in case back.
